The brunette set off at the fastest run that she could manage, silently cursing herself for smoking and never exercising. What seemed like an endless amount of pavement finally ended, and she tugged the door of the market open. Ding.
"I need you to call the police," Holly told the cashier, breathless. "My friend's been stabbed. He's down that way." She gestured helplessly. The cashier immediately picked up a black phone, dialing numbers. The brunette realized he was talking, had been talking, but she couldn't make out the words. They were only sounds in her ears.
He's all alone. She could wait for the ambulance by his side, keep him awake. Holly exited the store, making her way back to Rhys. When she reached him again, she knelt by his side.
